First up is my pride & joy - 2019 Giant Anthem Adv Pro 1 with a few upgrades. Secondly is my Scott Scale 920 (MY 2015) which I've converted into a sort-of-gravel-bike thing. I would still love to own a proper gravel bike with the correct gearing etc.

Where did you buy your shirts Jakkals?

Hi, do you need that setback post? Could extend your stem by 10/20mm and buy a normal Lyne dropper. I used 1 for over a year without a single problem.

Thanks Rouxenator Yes, they're finishing the bridge as we speak. I saw it on their FB page

Thanks Rouxenator. I take it you've done the 60? Anything specific we need to worry about? How accurate is the total ascent? I've done a 50km race at Bottelary and it was great (long ago though)

I have too- thus far my favourite. After testing numerous other saddles

That is some transformation! Congrats

I've been following this thread for quite some time now Finally bought myself a 29er carbon hardtail once more. Never used my road bike and thought this would make more sense as a type of gravel/road/commute bike Considering how relatively cheap it has been- i'm stoked with the outcome. Still a work in progress...

Picked this up recently - still need to sort out my fitment. I think its one of the prettiest bikes Giant have designed recently (IMO) Ya I know it might have too much gold #sorrynotsorry

I can finally post something on this thread

I bought this a few weeks ago. Yes I might have gone overboard with the red
